Chapter 1560 Lu Jiang: The despicable nature of King Wei is known to everyone in the government and the country!

Ningguo Mansion, Grand View Garden, Daoxiang Village

Jia Heng sat down in the room all of a sudden, held Li Wan's slender hand, gently put his arm around Li Wan's shoulders, looked at Li Wan intently, and moved close to those two fair lips to capture the fresh and sweet taste.

Li Wan felt the intimacy of the young man in the python robe. Her snow-white cheeks blushed like clouds. Her beautiful eyes under her graceful eyebrows were filled with endless charm.

Jia Heng hugged Li Wan's shoulders and whispered, "Has Brother Lan come back from outside these days?"

Li Wan's eyes were as bright as rainbows and as clear as water under her curved eyebrows. She said softly, "No one has come back."

Now that she has given birth to two more children, how can she go to see Langge?

Jia Heng said, "It's time for him to take the exam this year."

Li Wan nodded and said gently, "It seems so. It seems to be this subject."

Jia Heng thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go talk to him in the next two days."

While Jia Heng was speaking, he moved closer to the beauty's front, leaned forward, and kissed that plump and soft breast. He then smelled a milky fragrance that filled his nose, shocking Jia Heng inexplicably.

Li Wan's gentle and lovely face, her fair and lovely cheeks blushed as she said softly, "Zi Yu, stop making trouble."

However, she just felt bloated these past two days.

After an unknown amount of time, Jia Heng gently put his arm around Li Wan's round shoulders, and looked at the blushing beauty with a twinkling gaze. He felt like teasing her, so he moved closer to her lips and kissed them.

Li Wan's pupils were dilated, and her beautiful eyes, full of charming waves, showed a hint of shame and annoyance.

How could Zi Yu act like this?

Immediately, a mouthful of water was passed over, shocking Li Wan.

After a while, Li Wan looked at Jia Heng with anger from her beautiful eyes under her curved eyebrows, and whispered, "Zi Yu, you are too naughty."

Jia Heng looked at Li Wan with a bright gaze from under his sword-like eyebrows, and said softly, "Wan'er, help taste it too and see if the two children are eating well."

The two of them lingered for a while, Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at the sky outside, and said softly: "Wan'er, I'll go outside to take a look."

Li Wan's bright and clear eyes flickered under her beautiful eyebrows, and she said softly, "Zi Yu, go over there."

While Jia Heng was talking, he left the wing and walked along a gravel path towards the front yard hall. Just as he reached the corridor, he saw Feng Ji and Ping Er.

Sister Feng smiled, looked at the young man in the python costume, and said jokingly: "Brother Heng, did you just come out of Daoxiang Village?"

This is to see the children again.

Jia Heng nodded and asked, "Well, I just went to see Sister Wan. Where is Sister Feng going?"

Sister Feng nodded her beautiful head, her charming eyes sparkling like water, and said in a clear voice: "I came to see Sister Wan, but I saw the prince, and I just happened to ask the prince for advice on something."

Jia Heng looked quietly at Sister Feng's bright and beautiful face with sword-like eyebrows, and said softly: "Sister Feng, come with me to take a look."

As he was talking, accompanied by Sister Feng, he headed towards the Aojing Pavilion in the Grand View Garden.

At this moment, it is summer, and the lake in front of Aojing Pavilion is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds in the sky.

As the breeze blew, ripples could be seen on the lake surface, and the lotus leaves and duckweed swayed with them, drifting away into the distance.

Jia Heng came forward, took Fengjie's slender hand, entered the hall, and the two sat down.

Sister Feng raised her beautiful eyebrows, her crystal-clear eyes were warm and gentle. She was embraced by the young man in the python robe and could smell the fragrance floating in his arms.

Jia Heng raised his sword-like eyebrows, his eyes were as bright as water, and he asked knowingly: "What does Sister Feng want to see me about?"

When Fengjie heard this, she felt ashamed and angry, and said angrily, "What else could it be? Have you forgotten what you promised me?"

Jia Heng nodded and said gently, "Sister Feng, were you talking about the child just now?"

Sister Feng snorted softly with her delicate, straight nose, and then she leaned her beautiful head against the arms of the young man in the python costume and said, "You've said it many times, so why don't you give it to me?"

While Jia Heng was speaking, he suddenly embraced Feng Ji's plump and graceful body, lowered his head, sniffed the fragrance between Feng Ji's lush hair, and walked towards the warm room in the inner wing.

Jia Heng raised his sword-like eyebrows and looked gently at Feng Jie who was squatting down. There was a strange look on his resolute and calm face.

At this moment, Fengjie's beautiful hair was hanging down, her face as gorgeous as a rosy cloud was sunken, her eyelashes were slightly drooping, and her eyes were a little blurred.

Two blushes appeared on both sides of that bright and beautiful face.

After a while, Jia Heng looked at Sister Feng's bright and beautiful face and said in a gentle voice, "Sister Feng, it's almost done."

Sister Feng pursed her lips slightly and snorted through her straight and delicate nose. Her phoenix eyes were as bright as water under her green and beautiful eyebrows. Then she sat in the arms of the young man in the python robe.

Jia Heng gently embraced Feng Ji's plump waist, put his hands into her clothes, and touched the beautiful woman's soft skin. When he felt the beautiful woman's passion and initiative, his heart was a little dazed.

These days, he has been wandering among the flowers in the backyard, looking a little listless.

You can't stay in the backyard for a few days, otherwise even a strong body won't be able to stand it if it goes on for a long time.

Under Fengjie's beautiful curved eyebrows, her expression paused slightly, her bright eyes like rainbows and as clear as water. She didn't say anything else, and the tassels in her hair swayed gently.

Jia Heng held onto Sister Feng's plump waist, his calm and resolute face showing a hint of daze.

I don't know how long it took, but the clear blue water outside the courtyard became like a mirror, with ripples visible. A breeze blew, and the surface of the lake was rippled, with duckweed swaying gently.

Jia Heng raised his sword-like eyebrows, lowered his eyes to look at Sister Feng, whose body was as soft as a silkworm, and paused for a moment before whispering, "Sister Feng, are you feeling better?"

Sister Feng nodded, her eyes were charming and her face as white and tender as jade was as bright as clouds. She snorted and cursed in her heart, wondering what this bastard was asking just now.

Jia Heng hugged Fengjie's delicate body all of a sudden, and felt the beauty's trembling. There was a bit of strangeness on his calm face, and he said softly, "Sister Feng."

At this moment, Ping'er was watching the wind for the two of them outside, her plump and lovely face was flushed.

Grandma, can't you keep your voice down? If someone else hears this, I don't know what to say.

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go out and have some tea first, and let Ping'er come in and serve you."

Sister Feng responded softly, her bright and beautiful face was lightly blushed, her eyes were as bright as water, and she called out, "Ping'er, come here."

Not long after, Ping'er came quickly, her cheeks flushed, she lowered her eyebrows and said in a trembling voice, "Grandma."

Sister Feng's voice was soft and tender, with a hint of indescribable charm in her laziness. She said softly, "Ping'er, come and support me. I feel a little weak all over right now."

That enemy really treated her badly just now.

Ping'er's face turned red at this moment. She glanced at the wet floor, her heart skipped a beat. Her white, sparkling teeth bit her soft, pink lips. Her eyes flickered, and she said in a trembling voice, "Grandma."

As he spoke, he handed over a piece of silk handkerchief and helped Fengjie wipe the crystal clear sweat off her jade-like forehead.

At this moment, Fengjie also propped up one arm, and the sides of her gorgeous face were flushed red, and her body was as soft as a silkworm.

Ping Er came forward and immediately supported the beautiful lady's arm. Her eyes were as bright as water, and she whispered, "Grandma, are you okay?"

Sister Feng's beautiful, bright face flushed at this moment, and she whispered, "It's not good."

At this moment, she was really full.

Jia Heng quickly left Aojing Pavilion, went out of the hall, went to the outer room, and came to the study in the front yard.

At this moment, in the study room of the outer house——

Chen Xiao was playing chess with Gu Ruoqing, with a maid serving tea. The summer sunlight shone through the window onto the chessboard.

At this moment, under the eaves of the blue brick and black tile corridor, there were footsteps. Chen Xiao turned his eyes to look at Jia Heng and asked, "Are you back?"

Jia Heng nodded and said, "They are playing chess over here."

Chen Xiao said, "The scouts from the Jinyifu reported that there have been rumors in the capital recently, saying that you used the Jinyifu guards to exclude dissidents. Your intention is unclear."

Jia Heng raised his eyebrows, his eyes deep, and whispered: "This is a countermeasure by the civil officials. If I am not mistaken, it should be the work of Lu Jiang."

This was to arouse the indignation of the civil officials and thus extricate himself.

This is what a cabinet minister is like, he has keen perception and responds promptly.

Chen Xiao's clear eyes, shining like water, seemed to flicker under her beautiful eyebrows. She looked at the young man in the python costume and said in a deep voice, "Then how do you plan to deal with it?"

Jia Heng raised his eyebrows, his eyes flickered, and he whispered, "Let someone spread rumors in the capital, saying that a person of integrity has nothing to fear, and that since there is indeed corruption and abuse of power, send the police to arrest the person immediately."

Chen Xiao said: "That's true."

Jia Heng looked up at Chen Xiao and asked, "Is there any news about Chen Yuan from Jinyi Mansion?"

Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "I haven't seen him yet."

Jia Heng thought for a moment and said, "Chen Yuan is lurking in the dark, and he is likely to make some moves recently. Ask Jinyifu to pay more attention to any disturbances in the capital."

Gu Ruoqing looked at the young man in the python robe, without any reflection on his face, and said in a clear voice: "Chen Yuan should still be in the capital, why don't I go look for him."

Jia Heng nodded and whispered, "After what happened before, he has become suspicious of you. If you get close to him again, you will be in danger."

Chen Yuan might become desperate and resort to drugging.

Gu Ruoqing nodded, and understood a little bit, and knew what Jia Heng meant.

Shenjing City, Lu's House

Lu Jiang, dressed in a dark blue gown, with a slightly paused expression, sat down in the spacious flower hall, entertaining Lu Li, the president of the Hanlin Academy.

After a while, a young servant walked into the hall and reported, "Lord Lu, the president of the Hanlin Academy, Lu Li, is outside asking to see you."

At this moment, Lu Li came in quickly from outside, bowed deeply, and said, "This humble official greets you, Lord."

Under Lu Jiang's thin brows, his eyes were old and wise, and he had a smile on his face. He said, "Master Lu, please stand up quickly."

Lu Li straightened his face and said, "Thank you, Elder Lu."

After Lu Li sat down, Lu Jiang twisted a few strands of gray beard under his chin and said, "Master Lu must have heard the latest news in the capital."

Lu Li said, "I wonder who Elder Lu is referring to?"

Lu Jiang nodded and said, "The Jinyifu has previously sent out scouts to investigate the censor who impeached Prince Wei. His corruption and relatives are causing a stir in the Metropolitan Censorate."

As the saying goes, there are no fools in the court. He immediately figured out the ins and outs of the matter.

Lu Li looked at Lu Jiang with deep eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Prince Wei is using Jinyifu's investigation to take revenge on his personal grudges. It's really despicable and shameless!"

Lu Jiang waved his hand and said coldly: "The despicable nature of the King of Wei is well known to the government and the people! But I didn't expect him to be so vicious and use such a vicious trick on the upright officials!"

Lu Li looked deeply and said in a deep voice: "Master Lu, how will you deal with it next?"

Under Lu Jiang's thin brows, his calm and resolute eyes were piercing with spirit. He said in a cold voice: "Prince Wei got the Jinyi Palace to investigate and promote his reputation. He is wantonly excluding those who are different from him. If this matter spreads to the literati of the world, even a drop of spit can drown Prince Wei!"

Lu Li agreed: "What Elder Lu said is right."

Lu Jiang said in a cold voice: "Master Lu, you should send people to stir up trouble in the capital. The King of Wei uses the emperor's lackeys as his pawns to suppress dissidents."

If he guessed correctly, then Jia Heng must have sent spies from the Jinyiwei to secretly investigate him.

Lu Li nodded and asked, "I wonder what Elder Li and Elder Gao think about this matter?"

Lu Jiang said: "The two ministers, Li Gao, are also dissatisfied with the arrogant behavior of the Prince of Wei, but they dare not speak out for the sake of the overall situation of the court."

Lu Li's fair and bright face looked thoughtful as he whispered, "Although Prince Wei controls the government and holds all the power, he also has a fatal weakness. That is, the new monarch and the queen mother behind him will never tolerate Prince Wei's ruling a country that harms the country."

Lu Jiang shook his head, a worried look on his face, and said, "The Queen Mother has her young son behind the scenes and relies heavily on Prince Wei. She will not rashly cause a conflict, and may not necessarily follow the wishes of the civil officials at the moment."

Lu Li's resolute and calm face showed a thoughtful expression, and he said in a gentle voice: "The Queen Mother and Prince Wei are also related. Now that she is an orphan and a widow, she naturally relies on Prince Wei. However, she does not know the disaster of foreign relatives' monopoly of power in the past. The incident of Yang Sui is a lesson not far away."

Lu Jiang thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "The Queen Mother may not be unaware of this, but the current situation is difficult and compromise is inevitable."

Lu Li frowned slightly, his eyes flickered, and he sneered secretly in his heart.

I heard that Prince Wei is a playboy, and I'm afraid he might have some affair with the Queen Mother in the palace.

Well, this is also due to Jia Heng's reputation. It is inevitable that he will be seen by outsiders as being in a compromising situation.

……

……

Jia Heng left the outer study and went towards Nuanxiangwu in the Grand View Garden, intending to visit Xichun who was in the painting studio.

He hasn't visited Xichun much these days.

Grand View Garden, Ouxiang Pavilion, Nuanxiangwu

Xichun was currently sitting beside a wooden carved window, holding a book in her hand. Her crystal clear eyes beneath her beautiful emerald eyebrows seemed to be like ripples on water.

Obviously, the scenes of her time with Jia Heng were being reflected in Xichun's heart. Xichun's rosy and rosy face was blushing like clouds, gorgeous and bright.

Brother Heng is really something. She is just a young girl, yet he bullies her like this?

At this moment, a maid came from outside and whispered, "Miss, the prince is here."

As they were talking, Jia Heng walked around a brocade wooden glass screen and entered the inner room. He looked at Xichun and said softly, "Fourth sister, you didn't paint today?"

Xichun's eyebrows were curved like willow leaves, and her bright eyes were sparkling with a hint of joy. She said, "I can't paint every day."

Jia Heng walked closer and sat down on an embroidered cushion covered with a soft mattress. He took Xichun's delicate hand and whispered, "Fourth sister, what are you doing now?"

Xichun's voice was charming and a little naughty. She looked at the young man in the python robe with a shy and bright voice and said, "I'm reading a book. I'm reading the Three Kingdoms story written by Brother Heng."

Jia Heng chuckled and said jokingly, "Fourth sister is still reading storybooks."

Xichun has always been quiet and shy. Now that she is reading the storybook he wrote, it seems that she really misses him.

Jia Heng raised his eyebrows, his sparkling eyes flickered, and whispered, "Which one did Fourth Sister see?"

Xichun's eyes sparkled under her emerald eyebrows, and she whispered, "I saw the chapter about the Battle of Red Cliffs."

Jia Heng gently put his arm around the girl's shoulders, looked at Xichun's bright eyes, and said with a flicker in his eyes, "A battle of words with the scholars?"

When Xichun heard this, she was stunned at first, but the moist and warm feeling coming from her ears made her heart beat inexplicably.

Brother Heng...

Jia Heng stretched out his hand and gently embraced Xichun's plump waist, with a slightly prosperous smile on his face, and said, "Fourth sister, how about this episode of the debate with the scholars?"

Xichun: "..."

The girl's palm-sized face was already pretty and flushed. Under her curved eyebrows, her bright eyes were shy and timid, and her eyelashes were trembling.

Jia Heng took Xichun's slender hand and walked towards the inner room while speaking. When he came to the hall, he said in a gentle voice, "Fourth sister, come and serve me."

Xichun hummed softly, frowned her brows, her clear eyes sparkled with autumn light, her plump and lovely face flushed, she pinched a corner of her skirt, came forward, and lay on the bed, her skirt outlining her plump buttocks.

Jia Heng sat on a soft couch covered with a soft mattress. His resolute face showed a sense of comfort. Looking at that face as white as snow, he felt a bit puzzled.

The cold-spoken little girl is now articulate and lively.

Xichun's rosy face was now sunken, and her eyes were soft and moist beneath her willow-shaped brows, as if ripples were forming in them.
